Like Thelma and Louise

Coal minor's town
Some folks workin some just standin around
Two girls sittin pretty, storm's a brewin
It's a pitty
They're gonna turn this town upside down
Rumors runnin' round
People say that they were bound to be
Like Thelma and Louise
Gettin over their disease to please
They're all packed up, jacked up
For a new life with no man
In a van with a plan
Headin straight for the Grand Canyon
Just like Thelma and Louise
Before they go,
They're thinking people ought to know
and so they paint some names on a bridge
Bright red over head
And the names on the bridge say who did what with who
Getting even was a sin they knew
People say that they were doomed to be
Like Thelma and Louise
Gettin over their disease to please
They're all packed up, jacked up
For a new life with no man
In a van with a plan
Headin straight for the Grand Canyon
Just like Thelma and Louise
Taught to say thank you and please
Tricked and cheated on
Thelma told Louise
" in a fiery wreck they'll be looking for us
Long lashes to ashes and boobs to dust
Two Ladies laughing on a Gray Hound bus
Sippin Margaritas, poolside, in Las Vegas
Yeah, yeah, Just like Thelma and Louise"
Like Thelma and Louise
